People who use the 10 items or less queue when they have more than 10 items.

i should point out ( although it's a touchy subject), eating while in store without paying is technically theft.

[Lula]

LOL I know that, but all the packets are saved and scanned and paid for

[bazak1]

Well done. But in my three years as a security officer, you would be suprised how many tried to argue the toss about it.

[Lula]

Nope, not here, dont beleive in that sort of crap, quite happy to have a munch on the way around, but equally happy to pay for it also

[bazak1]

fair play to you.

if only everyone else was the same, there would be no need for security.

[bazak1]

Or cashiers. we could just leave our payment in a box by the front door of the store.

[angelone]

May as well just eat what you can around the store, then just walk out, you could do this every day and have no food bills to pay.

[Castlebest]

Then supermarkets would start to weigh people on the way in and on the way out and charge you the difference

HA HA !, yes they probably would.

[darling1]

Brilliant idea! Imaging that!

 

Tescos do trust us to get what we like and then leave the money in a box by the door.....its the self service tills!

Now they really ARE annoying!:o

You got there think AHHA this will be much quicker than queuing! ....But NO once you have lost the place in all the queues the b**dy thing then keeps rejecting your items - telling you that you havn't placed stuff on the conveyer that you have already done, and won't let you pack as you go along as it makes you put them individually on the conveyer AGHHHHHHH:mad:

Then you have to get staff to help! then paying is a nightmare!

 

No I shall go back to the 10 items or fewer/less/not more than/ till with my 15 items!! Its quicker! And its a laugh stopping others trying to count your items as you put them through the till! :-D

I hate it when you use the self service tills and then be one of the unlucky ones to have to do a re-scan...

Thats the sort of thing that would have me laugh at one point....but then I left school, and grew up. Maybe your just a late developer.

[bazak1]

To stand, for ages mindlessly watching item after item going down conveyor belt. " cuddly toy " springs to mind, good game, good game !

[angelone]

Vodka, redbull, beer.............

[bazak1]

Wine, WKD, Worthingtons creamflow.....

[angelone]

Ohhh life is good

[darling1]

Ta Louis! No Im not a late developer, quite the opposite! You should see me!! LOL

 

As I have said before, as part of my job I shop in the supermarkets for very large amounts! several hundreds at a time (Now, try being behind me then!! )

 

And in my own time I like to ring the changes!

Some people get wound up very easily.....

[Guest louis wu]

I think several hundred items in the 10 items lane might raise a few eyebrows;)

 

As to being wound up easily, its more a case of sometimes not being wound up, my blood presure is fit to burst, and

is sending it up even more.

 

I am just an argumentative old bugger......ignore me, most people do:D.

B&Q need a 10 items or less till.

For 1 bag of screws and i had to wait for 40 boxes of pansies ,6 fence panels and 4 bags of compost with 1 customer and yeap, they have to scan every one of them:rolleyes:

[barracad]

But you didn't have less than 10 items anyway so wouldn't have qualified...

[darling1]

This made me furious today!!!!

I went to M and S to pick up a very nice fluffy pair of slippers that I ordered yesterday..........

I went to the customer services area and there were 2 queues /one for "refunds and exchanges" with about 10 people in, moving into 3 tills and one "goods orderering and collecting" with only one lady in. So I went behind her, the area was cordoned off from the other tills. When I was being served the women, all of a certain age and style, started saying loudly...How rude, some poeple dont even bother to queue and not very British!!! I was so angry, as I am having huge problems at home/ redundancies, mortgage problems etc etc that I was going to snap or cry. So i said nothing......

When the cashier came back with my slippers form round the back, I asked her loudly...Is this queue for collections and orders only, or was I supposed to queue with those over there. She said I was right/ so I said loudly and very politely that it should be made clearer as those ladies have been very rude about me since I arrived/ funnily they were all looking elsewhere when I left...I should have said something, but I was having the most horrid day already...

The point is sometimes its very easy to point the finger and think alsorts - but really, get your facts straight, its all very well being pompous, but my day went from bad to worse because of some stupid fools - and for no reason.

BTW the slippers are really nice and warm!!

[kia]
